Macbook Pro external speaker suggestions?

In one of his early B2B lessons, Josh advises students taking the course on laptops to use external speakers. So, I’ve been thrashing the web and everything I seem to find looks like cheap junk. I figured y’all have something in mind that you could recommend. Input and links, if allowed, are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

What country are you in and what’s your budget?

I have a pair of these:

Can’t remember if I got them on a deal but it was only a year ago and I only paid £115 for them! However they are very good, and have surprisingly good bass response; if anything a bit too bassy and I have had to wind the bass down a little on them. They have a multitude of inputs including an aux 3.5mm.

I have 2 pairs of these. Love them. I started with the 3.5” but need more bass to fill the room. The Bluetooth one is convenient.

Yeah I reckoned the 4.5" were worth the extra. So versatile; I have my PC permanently plugged into them via the RCA sockets, my Focusrite Scarlett via the balanced 6.35mm (1/4") sockets, and an mp3 player via the 3.5mm in the front. I didn’t go for the bluetooth; my practise room already has enough RF noise to cook me! :rofl:

Amazon US has the non bluetooth for 129, so that’s perfect! Thank you Highland!!
